White collar crimes are unique and require experience in both federal court and that type of crime. They typically involve a high volume of documents and require great attention to detail. If you hire an inexperienced white collar criminal defense attorney, they may not have the availability and capacity to handle your case. In addition, your attorney needs to be familiar with federal court procedure, evidence rules and local rules of the court. Federal court is extremely complicated and one mistake could be extremely detrimental to your case.
